Richard Ouzounian, director of Pericles at
Stratford, is using the galley proofs of the
new Oxford edition as the text for his for-
thcoming production.
The galleys came to the Festival courtesy
of Shakespearean scholar Roger Warren, a
senior lecturer in English at Great Britain's
Leicester University. He is in Stratford
observing preparations for the Festival's
1986 productions of Pericles, The Winter's
Tale and Cymbeline. The National Theatre
of Great Britain plans to stage the same
three late Shakespearean Romances in its
Pericles, is reporting a play sufficiently
similar to Pericles (some scenes are vir-
tually identical) to enable us to reconstruct
some of the passages missing from the play.
That is the thesis pursued by the editors of
the forthcoming Oxford edition."
The reconstructed text was completed in
early March, just in time for director
Richard Ouzounian to incorporate several of
the new passages into his Festival produc-
tion. The Oxford editors also have high in-
terest in how their -additions work when the
play is put on its feet in production and this
next season and Mr. Warren is working on a will have some influence on the final
bookdating tai these major>product%ns publication. Director tlichara Ouzouniar, is
excited to be part of this process.
"It's wonderful it could happen here and
that they offered it to us before their own
National Theatre. I think that shows the
stature the Stratford Festival has abroad.
"I've always found Pericles to be a
fascinating play and this further enhances
my appreciation of it. The changes and addi-
tions make a big difference to the clarity of.
the text. Suddenly, things that seemed
awkward make sense and you get the thrill
of discovering a neglected master -

He received the galleys of Pericles from

Pericles survives only as a 'reported' text,
one put together by actors who had ap-
peared in it and had concocted what they
